Review Notes
Review Proposal Table Draft
Thinking FY 14-15, 15-16, 16-17
Notes:
• Matt shared discussion with Pres./VP’s on recommendations
• Also about concern of so much toward admin and support
• Marcia believes support and assigned admin. Needed
• Vanessa concurs to get started, put into conversation firm
footing, position assign 12-18 months then determine
• Patricia understands concern of support; however, Title III
was “supposed to be” 30% of VPAS, but was not realistic
even though support was attempted and could consider .5
time, but would be detrimental
• Carolyn – are we revisiting?
o Prepared a list of all groups under-represented
• Deonne – did FYE proposal for entry to exit
o Feels $225k is too much and that the funding is not for
“administration”

of budget
